Solving quadratics by factoring is the main concept in this video. Several examples are shown with positive numbers and with negative numbers. The instructor demonstrates how to set the factored equation to zero to solve the quadratic....

Fifth and sixth graders explore prime numbers. They work with a partner to build rectangular arrays using twelve tiles. Factor pairs are noted and recorded on graph paper. Pupils construct rectangular arrays with a prime number and...

Show the class how to find the factors of numbers. They use a variety of strategies, including unifix cubes, to find the factors of a whole number. This resource includes clear procedure to follow. Included are an anticipatory set,...

By offering a step-by-step explanation of how to identify prime numbers, this presentation would be a terrific way to give learners a visual example of prime numbers. This is a simple, and easy way, for students to understand the "why"...

Identifying patterns is a crucial skill for all mathematicians, young and old. Explore the multiplication table with your class, using patterns and symmetry to teach about square numbers, prime numbers, and the commutative and identity...

The instructors shows how to identify factors by breaking apart the numbers and variables of an expression and showing how multiplication if the operation that is being applied in each case.

Provide this video for your class to help with understanding of how to use the zero product property to find solutions to an equation. Before viewing, learners will need to have a basic understanding of the zero product property since...

Provide this video for your class to help with understanding of how to use the zero product property to find solutions to an equation. Before viewing, learners will need to have a basic understanding of the zero product property since...

How do you find the factors of a given number? The teacher will show you how to use a table, test out your answers, and then write all your factors in a list. If you know the divisibility rules, that will also help you out.

How will learning about the divisibility rules help you do better in math? Well, if you have multi-digit numbers to factor, these rules will definitely help you factor numbers more quickly.

Finding factors is an integral aspect of multiplication. Although there are two examples here, they don't illustrate the process so you will still need to model this a few times for scholars. First, mathematicians list the factors for...

A teacher describes how to find the prime factors of 525. She starts by describing how to use a factor tree to describe the factors of a number. Next, she uses increasingly difficult examples to illustrate this concept.

Finding factors requires practice and a logical system, so help scholars develop this skill with these problems. They write out the factor list for 9 two-digit numbers and then circle the factors from a list for four more numbers....

Finding factors is an integral skill on the road to fractions and algebra. Scholars write down a factor list for nine numbers up to 30. Next, they examine provided lists and circle the numbers that are factors of eight more numbers, also...

Give kids a few strategies to help them become amazing problem solvers. This presentation is intended to be used over a two-day period and presents several techniques or ways to solve word problems or multiplication problems by...

Learners examine the concept of finding the greatest common factor. They complete number of activities as they practice identifying prime and composite numbers. Pupils apply rules of divisibility and find the greatest common factor while...

Young math whizzes determine if a number is prime or composite. They use counters to participate in activities that show prime and composite numbers.

Using the numbers 225 and 270, the narrator explains how to find the greatest common factor and the least common multiple. This presentation could be used in conjunction with other videos in a series exploring how to identify prime...

Review the characteristics of prime numbers. The narrator begins by defining factors and then goes on to explore the definition of prime numbers. This is a quick and easy way to review prime numbers.

Help your class learn how to reduce fractions using this video. Learners take a pair of numbers and figure out how to find common factors, divide, and identify fractions in their simplest form.

Learners complete an experiment with Alka-Seltzer and reaction rates. They control the rate in which gases are allowed to escape. They test their predictions and observe what happens during the experiment.

What do divisibility and factoring have to do with each other? Well, if a whole number is the divisor and a whole number is the answer then both those numbers are factors of the number being divided. But if the answer is a decimal number...

How do you find the factors of a given number? The teacher will show you how to use a table, test out your answers, and then write all your factors in a list. If you know the divisibility rules, that will also help you out.

Looking for the least common multiple, not the greatest common factor. It's so easy to mix these up. It may seem a little confusing at first because there are variables and exponents in the monomial examples. Watch this video and get...
